It is been 25 years since the first mac was born. 25 years ago a much healthier Steve Jobs was standing in front of a stud audience that was waiting the anouncement of the first mac. Back then, the mac computer was the first computer with multiple fonts, 3D graphics, excellent graphics, music reproduction (not teet teet teet... real music) and speech capabilitys.
Since then the comptuer with the smartest name (mac) when through the darkest of hours and the best of its days. In he 80s a fallout between Steve Jobs and the Apple CEO brought him out of the company he had created. That was a turning point for Apple. Things went downhill since then. Many wrong moves and a unnecessary large number of machines, brought apple to the edge of destruction. In 1997 the first right move in many years from the apple leadership, brought Steve Jobs back to the steering of apple. For me this was a move that not only changed the history of apple but the history of digital industry for ever.
Just watch the fist few minutes of the clip.
As you can see our own "father" Steve Jobs was almost brought to tears, upon the very warm welcome from apple faithful fans that have had hope that Apple can become strong again. Steve faced out all the computers and focused one four main computers: a high- and a low-end laptop and a high- and low-end desktop. The low end desktop was the first iMac and sold more than 20 millions in one year. The fast-selling computer to this day. A colored translucent cover that contains the computer and the screen.
That was the beginning of the reborn. Following the iMac was the iBook, the Power book and Power Mac. Although those computers were great, the major boost to apple came in 2001 with the introduction of the iPod. The little device that can play 5000 songs. The simplicity of the iPod made many people switch to the apple computers looking for the same simplicity.
The lineup of the same computers have not changed untill recently were again the iBoo kjust became MacBook and the PowerBook MacBook Pro.
The pride of a mac user is beond everything. It is not random that mac users have great communtities very cohesive. Their stand in ground strong for the quality of their product and the quality of their OS. The apple platform is summarized in one phrase. The computer is bicycle for the mind.
Apple fans everywhere. Be proud and be happy. We are the few, but we are the great.
